Haggen Bridge (Ganggelibrugg)

Highlight • Bridge

The Haggenbrücke is a 355.5 m long steel truss bridge over the Sitter, built in 1936/37. It connects the St.Gallen district of Haggen with the Appenzell Ausserroder municipality of Stein. Although originally designed as a car bridge, it can only be used as a pedestrian bridge due to static vibrations.
Because of its swaying, it is popularly called “Ganggelibrugg”.
